Your insurance doesn't almost certainly won't cover you if the car is TWOC'djbainbridge wrote: »Were you insured to drive the car?We need the earth for food, water, and shelter.

If I were in your shoes, I would do the following:
1. Wait until your sister gets home
2. Do not drive the car again
3. Explain what happened and that you will pay for the damage
4. Your sister should then contact her insurance and state that she has had an accident due to the recent heavy rain
5. The insurance company will advise where to take the car for repair or write it off if the repair costs are too high
6. You should be prepared to pay the excess and the additional premium (if any) your sister will pay on her insurance
7. Sort out the issues with the rest of your family. It sounds like you are to blame for most of the issues if the recent event is an example
8. Families can be difficult at times, but imagine they were not there at all. You are lucky to have them.0 -

So are you advising insurance fraud or is it just something you would do?0 -

So TWOC, drink-driving (or drink-crashing), damaging public property, failing to report an accident (possibly) etc etc......unacceptable but sometimes understandable behaviour for a dim-witted, spotty, hormone-infested teenager with a car full of mates egging him on and a girl to impress.
Not so acceptable from a self-pitying, egocentric twenty-something
with the morals of a Barclays banker and chip the size of the Titanic on his shoulder.
Grow up!
This is where the OP's trolling falls down. All he has to draw on for characterisation is his life experience to date....and clearly his life to date *is* that of a little school boy with spots on his cheeks and a whole case of kleenex hidden under his bed.
Older trolls can be much more difficult to spot.0 -
You seem to be inciting the OP and his sister to commit an indictable offence by defrauding her insurers. Is that your final answer? Would you like to phone a friend?Benitomomo wrote: »If I were in your shoes, I would do the following:
